If the filter thinks that the job has finished then it might start the next
prematurely which would overrun the end of the first job.

I could definately do a lprm -Praw job but if the printer had started
processing a bit field line then it would no longer be in a stable state.

Usually running lptest would provide enough data to get back into "sane"
mode.
